Kokon is celebrating its 50th anniversary

12-11-2025

Last Thursday, we celebrated our 50th anniversary with an inspiring symposium and a festive gathering at our office in the Groot Handelsgebouw in Rotterdam.

A wonderful opportunity to reflect on 50 years of Kokon, the future of living and building, and the people who make it all possible.

We look back with pride on the inspiring contributions of Fahid Minhas (NEPROM) and Annemarieke Van Ettinger-Van Herk (Maaskoepel), who shared their vision for the future of living in the Netherlands.

The catering was in fantastic hands with Firma van Buiten; they truly spoiled us and our guests.

We also commemorated an impressive personal milestone: Ron van Leeuwen, who has been associated with Kokon for 30 years.

It was an evening full of inspiration, connections, and memories—exactly as we had envisioned.

Thank you to everyone who joined us to celebrate. Here's to 100! And that's closer than we think, because in 2028, Kokon will be 100 years old! We'll explain how that works later!
